tightpresent, I didn't touch my editor for about a month. That was because the process of doing tightpresent revealed flaws in my process of bringing clips into the editor that were creating choppy vids. I still like the vids I made for tightpresent, but a part of me winces when I watch them because I can see the little hitches from the messed up process. (Oddly, I think it kinda works in "Skynet: Life in the Balance." I'm pretty sure one of the commenters praised me for all the work I did to make it look so choppy, assuming it was an effect, when it was really just because my source footage was screwed up.)
With help from many, many internet tutorials andsanguinity, I believe I have figured out a better way to do it. So I am vidding again!
I have done a complete first draft of a Fringe Season 5 vid about Etta to Josh Ritter's "Joy to You Baby", a weary, nostalgic ballad where joy means basically everything except for joy. I like a lot of it, dislike a lot of it, and feel that I haven't yet completely found the narrative, but I'm pleased that I have a full draft because that's usually a good place for me to tweak from.
While I give it time to breathe, I also started poking at the source to try to make a Danger 5/ Inglourious Basterds crossover vid, a companion to my crossover fic "The Great Subduction" about a bar fight between Aldo and Jackson. I think I can make this happen. I think it will be awful, but I think I can make it happen.

In seriousness, how might you recommend the movie?
